Canada pushes for a 16-year USMCA renewal as July deadline nears
TL;DR Summary
Canada formally requested in Washington that the USMCA be renewed for 16 years, arguing the pact gives North America a competitive edge while acknowledging areas to improve; talks on sectoral tariffs are seen as essential, with the US seeking greater access for dairy and higher North American content in cars. If no extension is agreed by July 1, the pact would be renewed annually through 2036 amid domestic pressure to conclude a deal.
